Happy Anniversary to Us!!

Anthony and I celebrated our third wedding anniversary on Wednesday. How crazy is that? It doesn't feel like it's already been three years since I was about to lose my mind trying to get every last detail sorted out before our wedding, three years since we finally got hitched after what seemed like a lifetime of planning and hopped on a plane to Italy, France and Spain for our honeymoon. Our wedding day was perfect. I wouldn't have changed a single thing about it, and it was truly the most beautiful day of my life. So to be celebrating our third anniversary and to still feel as giddy and love-sick as newlyweds feels pretty damn good.

When we're in particularly mushy moods, I make sure to remind him that marrying him was the best thing I ever did and I have no doubt in my mind that I'll feel the same way 50 years from now. Ok, so enough gushing. Sorry. I get a little carried away when talking about my awesome hubby. How was our anniversary? It was actually pretty quiet. Traditional third anniversary gifts are supposed to be metal, and he went all out and got me a precious metal, a beautiful diamond necklace!

Isn't it lurvveellyy?!! He did good. I'm the first to admit that I am a total pain in the ass when it comes to picking out anything for me - I'm so picky! But I absolutely loved what he picked out, though I was horrified when I found out what he spent on it. In fact, I BEGGED him not to tell me because I hate spending money on anything for myself and I knew that the second he told me I'd start picturing a thousand more practical things we could have spent that money on, but Anthony told me to "shut up", because "we only live once and you're my wife, god damn it. I'll spend money on you when I want to."

I know, I know. Love him.

I actually got him jewelry as well. He needed a new wedding band since he can't wear his to work - it has a diamond and could pop out into someone's food and kill them - so I bought him a plain titanium wedding band with a brushed finish that he can wear all the time, and save his pretty diamond one for when we go out.

Tada! He loves it.

We didn't end up going out because unfortunately I was having monster back problems on our actual anni, but we do have a trip to Orlando planned in about a week so we're going to have dinner at the Polynesian one night instead. I've always wanted to go there but it's kind of pricey, so I always make an excuse as to why we should go somewhere else. I am so excited for our trip because not only are we going to Disney but we are going to Islands of Adventure for THE GRAND OPENING OF:

::jumping up and down with excitement::

OMG! OMG! OMG!

Ok, tweenish fit of hysteria over. But seriously, I am so friggin pysched to check out this park!!! I can't believe I'm going to get to walk through Hogwarts and to ACTUALLY TASTE BUTTERBEER! AH!! I hope it's good!

So, now that this post has gone way long enough, I'll leave you with a few pictures of our June 9, 2007 wedding :)

That's all folks! I'll report back with tons of details and pics of the Harry Potter park after our visit :)
